As the summer of 2006 heats up, Equal Vision Records is proud to announce the release of a stunning discography that culls emotionally eviscerating "Songs Of Separation", to the group's unforgettably searing epic "Threefold Misery", along with its chaotic final EP, "Curse Of Instinct". In addition an unreleased gem known as "Panic" will also grace the release. Recently remastered by Tom Hutten at Bionic Mastering, the 108 discography is a moving testament to an era of hardcore that was brimming with passion, intensity and spirit the likes of which have yet to be duplicated.

88 Fingers Louie (named after a shady piano salesman from The Flintstones cartoon) has played a very important part in Chicago, IL's rich punk-rock heritage. The seminal Chicago melodic punk/hardcore band got their official start in 1993 and they quickly started writing, playing shows and released three 7" records during their first year as a band. The band's sound was unique and a combination of all the things they loved about punk rock - drawing influences from '80s, California punk, east coast hardcore as well as midwestern hometown heroes The Bollweevils, Naked Raygun and Pegboy. Vinyl version includes digital download.
